By the way, on my home system the "Don't Know Yet"'s are 4.72.3812.600 and 
5.50.4134.600 respectively. I/m going to try an update to IE5.5 SP2 to see what 
effect it has. I installed teh updates on Win2k today which changed the 
versions of shdocvw.dll to 5.50.4915.1500 and shell32.dll to 5.0.3502.

Win95 seems to be using shdocvw.dll for this (at least the system I have)! It's 
hard to tell though.

Exactly :-) Thanks.
